Abstract excerpt
Rotaviruses (RVs) of species A (RVA) are a major causative agent of acute gastroenteritis. Recently, histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) have been reported to interact with human RVA VP8* proteins. Human P[19] is a rare P genotype of porcine origin that infects humans sporadically. The functional and structural characteristics of P[19] VP8* interaction with HBGAs are unknown. In this study, we expressed and...
